Apprenticeships

What does Neet stand for and why does the UK have so many?

Ministers want to tackle the high number of young people not in education, employment or training.

The programme was set up in partnership with the Isle of Wight's HTP Apprenticeship College.

The head of an agency that employs apprentices says it is becoming harder to find work for young people.

Suella Braverman also advised student's "not to get ripped off by the great university scam".

Apprentices split their time between training and working - and are paid by their employer.

On GCSE results day, one option for pupils could be apprenticeships, a Warwick firm says.

Taking A-levels is just one of several options for students after finishing their GCSEs.

The popularity of degree apprenticeships has grown as the cost of university has come under increased scrutiny.
